Cheating at Solitaire

Some believe that if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, then it doesn't make a sound.

Well then, if you cheat at Solitaire, is it really cheating?

How about those gray areas? Like say you want to add that five of diamonds to the Ace's suit stack, but there's a black four on top of it preventing you. So, you move the four over to an empty red five. A parallel move, if you will. Then you take that five of diamonds and move it up to the Ace's suit stack, gaining a point. Is that cheating?

What about temporarily taking a card off an Ace's suit stack to set up a chain reaction so you can access cards in other stacks? Is that cheating?

And, if you are cheating in Solitaire, who are you cheating?

This all reminds me of that recurring question posed in Stand By Me. Is Pluto a boy, or a girl?
